What is matter? What is it made up of?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Julli [10]3 years ago
5 0
A definition of "matter" more fine-scale than the atoms and molecules definition is: matter is made up of what atoms and molecules are made of, meaning anything made of positively charged protons, neutral neutrons, and negatively charged electrons. There are three states of matter, they are: solid, liquid and gas. In extreme environments, other states may be present, such as plasma, Bose-Einstein condensates and neutron stars .

A 76.0-gram piece of metal at 96.0 °C is placed in 120.0 g of water in a calorimeter at 24.5 °C. The final temperature in the ca

Answer:

S(metal) = 0.66J/g°C

Explanation:

We can find specific heat of a material, S, using the equation:

q = m*S*ΔT

<em>Where q is change in heat, m is the mass of the substance, S specific heat and ΔT change in temperature.</em>

The heat given by the metal is equal to the heat that water absorbs, that is:

m(Metal)*S(metal)*ΔT(Metal) = m(Water)*S(water)*ΔT(water)

<em>Where:</em>

m(Metal) = 76.0g

S(metal) = ?

ΔT(Metal) = 96.0°C-31.0°C = 65.0°C

m(Water) = 120.0g

S(water) = 4.184J/g°C

ΔT(water) = 31.0°C-24.5°C = 6.5°C

Replacing:

76.0g*S(metal)*65.0°C = 120.0g*4.184J/g°C*6.5°C

S(metal) = 0.66J/g°C

<em />

The law of conservation applies because the energy is not been created or destroyed. The energy that the metal gives is absorbed by the water.

What is the net charge of a nitrogen atom with 8 electrons
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

– 1

Explanation:

From the question given above, we obtained the following:

Electron = 8

Net charge of nitrogen =.?

Nitrogen has atomic number of 7. This also means that nitrogen has 7 proton because atomic number of an element is the equal to number of protons in the atom of the element.

Thus, we can obtain the net charge of nitrogen with 8 electrons by calculating the difference between the protons and electrons of the nitrogen atom. This can be obtained as follow:

Proton = 7

Electron = 8

Net charge = Proton – Electron

Net charge = 7 – 8

Net charge = – 1

Therefore, the net charge of the nitrogen atom with 8 electrons is – 1
